I'll not be rushing out to get it, so can't understand lying in order to get it. But hey, whatever helps you sleep at night.

I've heard some centres are checking up on this and even had to call the police out to remove people who got stroppy when told they ain't eligible yet.

5 ways.
1) Underlying health conditions within Group 4 or 6
2) Paid care workers or NHS staff with ID badges
3) Unpaid carers for an elderly or Group 1-4 person whose welfare would be at risk if the carer were to fall ill (either flagged as carers with their GP, in receipt of Carer's Allowance or very recently self-declared on the NHS booking site as such)
4) Called up by GPs in some local areas who are defying Government advice to restrict access to Groups 1-9
5) On reserve list for spare vaccine left over at the end of a day that would otherwise be wasted (Cheltenham local vaccination centre systematically worked through Police Officers as their chosen group to receive these for example)

How old are you? However, I know people in their late 30s (healthy, not carers / health workers) who were contacted and have since had the vaccine.
It depends on your area and the age / health of those living where you live.

I share your struggle sir.
I built a little multi gym in my garage this time last year. I started out really keen, training daily like a devoted athlete I felt like Rocky Balboa in Rocky V.
Now I get back in the house after an hour and I’ve organised all my screws and nails into separate pots and also made friends with a neighbours pet cat that always wanders in.

Think that's representative of most of us to be fair
I've never felt motivated to train at home and despite weeks of doing it last year outside domestic issues crowded it out after Summer (and a rubbish Winter didn't help).Still haven't started running again - Spring is very demanding in the garden and every time I think about going for a run I'm hit by the guilt of 1,000 jobs that need doing urgently and get paralyzed.I reckon we're all suffering some degree of cabin fever, demotivation and/or depression. When the weather cheers up and I get outside even to do a bit of weeding in the sunshine my mental state improves 100% even if it's cold and windy. At some point very soon the TRX/KO8 is coming out again and I'm going to start some short 20 minute workouts that won't make me feel wiped out to break the ice. This can;t go on indefinitely - something has to change and it's all in our own hands !!!

At least we know who still reads The Sun
I'm plagued by Professor Neil Ferguson....I don't read the Sun or any other Newspaper. It flashed up on my Facebook feed.......He's practically haunting me

Turned the back third of the garden into a gym, heavy bag, 100kg tyre, pull up frame etc. Provisionally booked in to fight September, all this has made me think life is too shortThink that's representative of most of us to be fair

It's certainly not been fun. I go to the gym alone so it isn't really a social thing but just being around people and lifting more than them builds me up
. I even have more time at home as there is no travelling etc, but of course it's just not the same feeling.I've managed to keep up 5 days a week but i can't wait for 12th April

I don’t fall into any of those groups unfortunately
70% Ibiza population vaccinated by June? That would be good.

Just ring and say your a carer, lots of others are doing it.
It's a bit stricter now but you might get away with it.
Don't even feel guilty about doing it as there are lots of knobs recently who are just not bothering to even turn up for their jag.

Nor do a huge load of people who've been given it anyway. Complete postcode lottery, makes a mockery of the so-called "queue". My brother-in-law is the only one in the extended 'family' (10 in total) who hasn't had it now with ages ranging between 22 and 85. He's 5 months off being 50 and the only one who could really do with a vaccine passport to actually do his job. Come booster time he won't need to bother about being left out but knowing his luck by then they'll have decided they're only available to the 65s
